About Us

Where Adventure meets Innovation

Founded by fearless aviator and adventurer Mike Blyth, Sling Aircraft is the culmination of a relentless pursuit to create the ultimate light sport aircraft. What began as Mike’s vision to design and build the perfect LSA evolved into a thrilling journey, with each test flight uncovering new ways to refine and elevate the design.

Enter James Pitman – a corporate lawyer, adrenaline junkie, and lifelong adventurer. The partnership between Mike and James brought together two bold spirits with a shared passion for adventure and precision. With fresh energy and resources, they dismantled the prototype and rebuilt it, fine-tuning every aspect to create an aircraft with military-grade handling and performance.

Slingers, get ready to feel the burn!

The Tanqua Kuru is calling and we’re answering

It’s go‑time! Load up your gear, strap on your gravel shoes, and aim for the wide‑open Karoo horizon. The Tanqua Kuru is calling, and we’re answering with throttles, pedals, and hearts wide open. At least four Sling aircraft and our solid team of riders will make the pilgrimage to Tankwa Tented Camp for what’s become an annual tradition of grit, gravel, and greatness.

But that’s not all!

There’s still one title former Springbok Bob Skinstad hasn’t claimed… This isn’t a stadium victory. No crowds, no ceremony, no easy applause. This one is fought for. Across endless gravel, through the dust, under the relentless Tankwa sun. And he’s chasing it down on a Sling Cycles Tagati. So, the question is — when he rolls up to the start line… will you be there with him?
